Colombel Christmas

Yes--  two blogs in one day!  I really have to get more tech-savy so I can update closer to the time of my pictures.


We celebrated Christmas at our home this year, on the Saturday before Christmas (Christmas was on a Tuesday).  Aunt Kimmy, Uncle Keith, Jasmine and Alexander came down from Pennsylvania, and Aunt Laura, Uncle Mike, Trey, Tristan, Aunt Erika, Uncle Nick, Jordan, Tyson and Keilan (Julien unfortunately had the flu) joined our family for some food, fun, and family time.

Each family brought food, and we had a yummy potluck dinner.  The adults did a White Elephant gift exchange (Eric and I had our gifts taken away, so I ended up with Eric's gift (lottery tickets), and Eric got mine (some kitchen supplies that we gave to Jasmine), and the kids opened lots of presents from their aunts and uncles.

Below are pictures taken from Thanksgiving, when Grandma and Pop Pop were in town and stayed with us.  We started decorating early this year!

Molly stayed with us too!  She is the superheroes' Aunt!

A few days earlier, we were still in the Christmas spirit...

The morning after Christmas, it was BEAUTIFUL!  Here is a video of us at the playground.


Hope you had a great holiday with friends and especially great FAMILY!
